    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Sistem Pendukung Keputusan Pemilihan Wilayah Prioritas Intervensi Kegiatan Keluarga Berencana dengan Metode AHP-SMART

    Full text link
    Keluarga Berencana merupakan tindakan yang membantu individu atau pasangan suami istri untuk mendapatkan objek tertentu yang dijalankan oleh BKKBN. Dalam mencari wilayah yang kurang dalam penggunaannya, dilakukan intervensi kegiatan Keluarga Berencana. Intervensi merupakan suatu kegiatan yang dilakukan secara sistematis dan terencana untuk mengubah keadaan seseorang, kelompok orang atau masyarakat yang menuju kepada perbaikan atau mencegah memburuknya suatu keadaan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan sebuah Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) untuk memilih wilayah prioritas intervensi kegiatan Keluarga Berencana yang meliputi permasalahan seperti proses pemilihan yang memakan waktu lama dan memungkinkan terjadinya kesalahan manusia. Aplikasi ini dibangun menggunakan metode AHP-SMART karena metode AHP dapat menentukan apakah terdapat ketidak konsistenan dan metode SMART digunakan karena dapat menyelesaikan masalah pendukung keputusan dengan multikriteria. Hasil dari aplikasi ini adalah urutan nilai prefensi dari nilai terbesar hingga terkecil berdasarkan alternatif yang menjadi pilihan. Secara keseluruhan dari hasil pengujian akurasi dan wawancara, SPK dapat membantu proses pengambilan keputusan dan mengatasi permasalahan pada BKKBN dalam menentukan wilayah intervensi kegiatan Keluarga Berencana
